Episode 58: Swamp Sounds
12:00pm, 8-9-2020
<< Tropicology
The international music playlist on Tropicology is suspended so I can play music in support of the Black Lives Matter movement. Today the theme is our country's original home of all black sounds: New Orleans. I'll be playing soul, funk, and music for Mardi Gras parties and parades. A Treme sampler today with additional sounds from surrounding swamplands.
